LA Fitness has a long way to go!!!

by RobinLynn Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jun 22 '00
Pros: modern equipment
Cons: unfriendly , indifferent staff, dirty equipment and facility


When LA Fitness took over my independently-owned gym a few years ago, there was much fanfare about increased services, equipment, classes, etc. And while it is true they did a complete make-over (even though my gym was only about...

Overall, a good gym for the money!

by sandiegan , Sep 11 '02
Pros: Plenty of locations, fun and varied aerobics classes
Cons: Extremely PUSHY sales people
Overall: I found this gym to be a good place to work out overall. Some of the gyms (such as the one near UCLA) can be very crowded during peak hours, but there are many accessible locations. The classes were almost always a good workout and fun. The...

LA Fitness is the worst....

by lemoco , Jun 22 '05
Pros: Good Marketing
Cons: Poor Functioning
First of all, LA Fitness has nothing the do with Los Angeles - the name is just a marketing gimmick- other than perhaps they have a regional office in Irvine. LA Fitness is in fact an English company: LA Fitness 101 Commercial Road London, England, ...

An East Coast view of LA Fitness

by e927 , Jan 13 '03
Pros: New facilities. Reasonable rates. Has a pool.
Cons: Sales-oriented culture. Limited class offerings. Not too many locations.
LA Fitness has been expanding all the way to the East Coast, and when one opened nearby, I decided to join. Overall I'm glad I did, but it hasn't been everything I hoped it to be.

Getting started:
I signed up as a "charter" member before...

by cowboydj , Jul 02 '00
Pros: Sporty water-bottle free with membership!
Cons: Vodka not included.
Best friends since high school, Tera had stuck by me through thick and thicker, party to the many hair-brained schemes I dreamed up to hasten my dramatic metamorphosis from fat adolescent nerd into thin adolescent adult.

Good place for a Gym "newbie"

by janesbit1 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Jun 23 '00
Pros: Mass appeal, pleasant surroundings, clean, well maintained equipment, some good trainers, flexible hours
Cons: Sometimes over crowded, irritating pop music, some trainers aren't so good, fairly frequent trainer turnover
After attempting to follow Tiger Woods around the final round of the Phoenix Open last year and finding myself getting winded, I knew it was time to find a gym and work my way back into shape. I began my quest to find a gym.

Now what does a...

Personal trainer - big mistake

by ayamsatu , Jul 18 '07
Pros: Good equipment, sauna, hot-tub
Cons: Rude idiots for staff, supercrowded, greedy corporation
On joining the gym, personal trainers, like vultures, would relentlessly hover around trying to get me to sign up with them. They promised me the "moon and the stars" in terms of results. I succumbed to their persistence, consoling myself that most ...

all looks, no substance

by mjb2 , Apr 12 '01
Pros: wide variety of cardio classes
Cons: extremely crowded; dirty; overpriced; deteriorating equipment; not enough weights; poor ventilation; bad music
If you're seeking a prime example of the LA stereotype of style over substance, look no further than the aptly named LA Fitness. I had the dubious honor of membership for about 7 months - only because my company had a deal set up - and it was the worst...

Pros: Good hours and locations, minimal posing in most branches
Cons: Sleazy salespeople, different equipment in each branch, some dirty locker rooms and bathrooms
...join a fitness club, this one'll do, but only if you just want to join a club and forget about it.
